BORKNAGAR’s much anticipated new album “Urd” is out NOW in Europe and North America! Having recently been voted “album of the month” in the current issues of Germany’s Metal Hammer Magazine as well as Norway’s Scream Magazine, we would like to celebrate the release date by presenting another new song off the album online. To check out the track “Frostrite”, featuring the returned ICS Vortex (Arcturus, ex-Dimmu Borgir) on main vocals, please visit the band’s the band’s official facebook profile (“Like” required!) here: www.facebook.com/borknagarofficial

The album’s artwork was designed by Brazilian artist Marcelo Vasco (www.P2RDESIGN.com), who has not only already worked on the band’s previous “Universal” release but also with artists such as Soulfly, Belphegor, Einherjer or Keep of Kalessin. The mixing duties for the album were taken care of by Jens Bogren at Sweden’s Fascination Street Studios (Opeth, Paradise Lost, Katatonia, etc.).

Next to the standard CD, 180gr. vinyl LP (in unlimited black version, but also in very limited coloured pressings of 200x green copies via the CM Distro Shop in Europe and 100x golden copies via the CM Distro Shop in North America!), a limited edition first pressing version of the album will be available in Europe as Digipak with the 2 bonus tracks “Age Of Creation” (unreleased new album sessions’ track) and “My Friend Of Misery” (Metallica cover).

BORKNAGAR have previously launched a first promotional song off “Urd” on Century Media’s YouTube-channel. Go check out the enthralling track “Roots” here:
